This was one of a batch of six English Electric trolleybuses which enabled Darlington to open their route to Park Lane, later numbered 5, which commenced operation on 23-Feb-1930.

The nearside destination blind is unusual as it contains a route letter, to my knowledge never used. Route numbers were introduced in the late 1930s.
